A descendant of the Samoan Anoa'i family, Jey Uso's bloodline includes such in-ring legends as his father Rikishi, his great uncles The Wild Samoans and even "the most electrifying multi-time WWE Champion in all of entertainment" The Rock.

Along with his twin brother Jimmy, Jey was determined from the start to shake loose any preconceptions his opponents might have about the Samoan culture. Anyone thinking Jimmy & Jey Uso would ever compete barefoot while wearing tribal beads like their island-born WWE Hall of Famer great uncles would be sorely mistaken.

The Usos - along with Tamina, daughter of WWE Hall of Famer "Superfly" Jimmy Snuka - made their WWE debut on the May 24, 2010, attacking The Hart Dynasty - part of the "first family of sports-entertainment." As huge a statement as their explosive onslaught would be, it would serve as a just prelude for the title wave of excitement yet to come.

With the glorious Samoan tradition coursing through his veins, Jey Uso strives to represent one of the squared circle's most famous islands like never before. Ironically, his competitive nature and pursuit of success screamed both "wild" and "electrifying."
